The McGladrey Classic: Career-low, final-round 60 at The McGladrey Classic in the fall earned him his first career PGA TOUR win. Began the final round seven strokes behind Jim Furyk and Davis Love III. Carded a course-record and career-low 10-under 60 (previous low was 63) to edge David Toms by one stroke for his first PGA TOUR victory in his 105th start. The South Carolina native was the clubhouse leader for more than two hours before he sealed the victory, with Furyk needing a birdie on the final hole to force a playoff (finished with bogey). His bogey-free round (the only one of the day) included eight birdies and an eagle-3 at the par-5 15th. His 19-foot birdie attempt at the 72nd hole for a 59 slid by on the right, with the par-4 snapping a string of seven consecutive 3s on Nos. 11-17. The seven-stroke comeback trailed only Kyle Stanley's eight-shot come-from-behind win at the Waste Management Phoenix Open for the largest of the season. The final-round 60 was just the third recorded in a PGA TOUR final round and the first that led to victory. Previous-best finish came in 2008, with runner-up honors at the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals Classic, losing by a stroke to Love.

Finished T8 after a 3-over 74 in the final round, largely due to triple bogey on drive-able par-4 16th where an errant tee shot hit a hazard stake and went into a greenside water hazard. His subsequent shot after a penalty drop also found the water hazard.

2010 Season

Made 27 starts on the Web.com Tour and collected two wins, a second- and a third-place finish among his six top-10s.

Scores of 64-66-62 put him at 24-under, equaling Arjun Atwal's Web.com Tour record for most strokes under par through 54 holes. Needed only a 3-under 69 on the final day to earn his second title in four starts. Endured a mid-round stretch that didn't produce a par in nine holes (six birdies and three bogeys). Holed out from a greenside bunker at No. 14 for birdie and then saved par at No. 15 after pushing his tee shot into a hazard down the right side of the fairway. A two-putt birdie at 18 gave him a three-shot cushion over Joe Affrunti. Score of 27-under matched the second lowest in Tour history. Victory was worth $99,000 and pushed his season total over the $300,000 mark, moving him to No. 1 on the money list.

Melwood Prince George's County Open Presented by Under Armour: Earned his first career win, at the Melwood Prince George's County Open, in June when he two-putted the final hole for birdie. Emerged from a crowded leaderboard on the last day, shooting a 6-under 65 to finish at 17-under 267, one better than Jin Park and Frank Lickliter II. He began the final round three strokes back of leader B.J. Staten but moved into the lead with four birdies and an eagle in his first seven holes. A double-bogey at the par-4, 9th dropped him into a four-way tie for the lead, which he then regained with another birdie at No. 11. Maintained a tenuous one-shot advantage until Lickliter birdied the par-5, 18th to tie. Playing in the next group, he reached the uphill, 547-yard closing hole in two and two-putted from 35 feet for the win. The victory was worth $108,000 and moved him from No. 18 to No. 2 on the money list.
